The new regulation will take effect at the end of the year.

Surcharges imposed for unauthorized road use will be activated with the purchase of the annual national decal after demand for payment. The surcharge maximization introduced in 2018 will be allowed after two cases compared to the current three, the Ministry of Innovation and Technology (ITM) said.

The “surcharge mnesty”, which will also be introduced, will exempt the payment of the accumulated account receivable, up to several hundred thousand florins, for 180 days, for an amount corresponding to six surcharges, currently 89,250 HUF.

The amendments related to the regulations will expand the toll network for passenger cars with the high-speed sections built this year, and will also establish rules to monitor rate inflation.

More than 10,000 road users are forced to pay a surcharge each year for late purchase of an annual decal, according to the statement. Almost 15,000 people take advantage of the opportunity to maximize surcharges.

The new institution clarifies the intention for the state to encourage law-abiding behavior in ways other than punishment.

– said László Mosóczi, Secretary of State for Transport Policy. As of the entry into force of the new provisions, road users can decide to buy the annual national sticker in arrears instead of paying the surcharge. The annual sticker entitles the holder to use motorways and expressways in the calendar year of purchase and until the end of January of the following year.

Surcharge maximization offers drivers who make multiple mistakes a cheaper alternative to paying up to a dozen surcharges. Currently, it can be started within 75 days to waive the obligation to pay a surcharge for a single fee corresponding to the amount of two surcharges for a car that fails at least three times: HUF 29,750 according to current regulations. If someone has made a mistake only twice and pays more than 60 days, they will regret with two more surcharges, now 119 thousand guilders, since until now it has only been possible to maximize it to a quarter.

For those who do not meet the 75-day deadline, the law has so far not allowed any substantial benefits to be applied. Since the claim amount is HUF 59,500 according to current regulations, if the surcharge is paid for more than 60 days, the fee for four unauthorized uses of the road may increase to several hundred thousand florins.

The new regulation expands the option of payment in installments that was previously only available to natural persons to companies. Road users also benefit from the fact that an administrative fee can only be charged once for the provision of services under the Regulation.

Most of the amendments to the regulations will enter into force on December 1, 2020.

Since last year, it has been possible to make up for it within an hour if someone drove onto a stretch of turnpike without a sticker.

Does a highway day decal make sense?

The county’s annual highway and highway use rights acquired last year will expire early next week. Somehow, in the days that have arisen, perhaps speaking of it, why is there no ad hoc right, for a trip, for a day?
